This has been done to death, but those are some seriously big crane pieces.

It looks like the construction cam has night vision "goggles".

It looks like only the base of the crane is particularly wide, and the upper parts of the crane are normal sized. That's unusual.

Not having a fear of heights is an obvious prerequisite for this job. That's the Indeed tower in the background. This has to be the tallest initial height for a tower crane in Austin ever.

Looking at the webcam now. Looks like the crane will be lit at night.

This was posted on HAIF. It was apparently taken by one of the Indeed tower crane operators.
